Silly question I know...

No details asked, understand if no details given - just rant away all you want!:bonk:

Thank goodness for TPF and PM's
 
my jobs cool i wouldnt do it if it wasnt.

there are plenty of jobs to chop and change if you want too
 
I hate my job

I hate the people I encounter

I hate the people who are supposed to work for me

I hate the motor industry with a passion

I hate myself for not being able to get my backside in to gear and find some thing outside of the motor trade that would at least put a smile on my face!




I love beer though, and it does help remove some of the days hatred :D
 
don't get me started......the swear filter can't take it!
 
I have good days and bad days (but then don't we all?). I don't hate my job as such as I love being a midwife, I just hate the constraints placed upon me by the NHS which mean that I am not able to do my job properly and the way that I want to do it.
Yesterday I came home from work, close to tears and frustrated as yet again, I had to do the work of two people, had no break and was late off. Days like that make me want to quit as it's not fair on me or the women I care for.

Roll on my emigration to Canada where I can work how a midwife should work :thumbs:

I love my salarywhich buys my toys :)


I love beer too :D

sorry DF, so eloquent i had to plagerise :lol:
 
Can't stand mine either. Been there so long I'm part of the furniture and can't seem to get the 'get up and go' to look for anything else. I suppose it's a comfort factor or the 'better the devil you know' scenario.

Luckily I sit in a corner and can spend a lot of time on the web, especially this place.......

This is also the reason that I am wanting to up my photography skills so that I can do more than just take a few shots of my sisters kids or shots of the odd landscape here and there.
 
Days like today I hate my job, busy, poorly patients that dont seem to get better only worse no matter what you do, no breaks, no support from the management.

However the good part about today was the support and help I go from a collegue from a slightly different department. the baby is now at another hospital where hopefully they will be able to help her.#

All in all, my jobs not too bad, again constraints put on me by the NHS are annoying, but when we get days that we have time to spend with the patient and familys are nice.
 
Oh dear....I loved my job as a community midwife, (18 yrs) but in the later years hated the fact that I I couldn't work as it should be/used to be, (like Min) so I got out. I love my new job in IT with the NHS..........Ok, so the National programme for IT is 3 yrs behind schedule......but when it finally arrives it will be good!!......I have to believe this or else the last three years of my life will have been for nothing. I have spent a lot of time helping with the development of the iSoft system for the North/west/east of the country, as well as the clinical systems for my own Trust. If that turns out to have been a waste.....well, what can I say, .....I'll be gutted.

I can retire in a couple of years if I wish....and I might....but currently I'm happy.
 
I don't hate my job, because I don't have one, I was able to retire early after a long and undistinguished career as a Health Service Manager.

And retirement is utter absolute bliss :)

I've been retired over a year, and the novelty still hasn't worn off, every day is like a holiday.

Although I've come to hate bank holidays, too many bl**dy people around.
 
I was born to be retired. My missus says if I get any more laid back I'll fall over. :p
 
I'm a lorry driver, The driving I still enjoy, The traffic and the idiots on the roads I hate with passion..:(
 
For those really fed up with their jobs, how about this?

In general I love my job, but the last couple of days have been a real pain with breakdowns on machines designed by idiots who didnt think about the poor person who has to repair it.

18 months ish for me too.

Well I closed a successful business when the Chinese started making our products and selling them to our customers for less than the cost of parts to us.... but I agree with the other sentiments :)

Don't know now how i found the time for 12 hour+ working days for all those years!

Oh and if you ever watched the TV show 'lost'... we call them 'the others' ;)
 
My job would be absolutely perfect if it wasn't for the clients :p
Oh and the office staff :D
 
My job is great and I love doing it.

Management...now there's a different story... :(
 
As a teacher, I generally like my job.

I'm not one to moan about low pay, long hours, etc as on the whole, I think we get paid pretty well. And as for those holidays ..... ;)

Take today for example, spent the morning watching and discussing Toy Story 2 in detail with a bunch of 6 and 7 year olds. After a 'wet play' at lunchtime, I taught them how to play dominoes (maths related if the boss walks in!) before having a good tournament!!!

After a quick singing lesson (given by someone else) this afternoon, it was hometime for the kids and me back in the house before 4pm!!! The end of year test papers are marked, the annual reports have gone out, parents evening was on Monday, no real planning needed until September ........ and only 3 days to go until the 6 weeks 1 day of summer begins!!!!

Yep - I like my job!!! ;)

Anth.

PS - if you are a parent of a child in class G, I would like to take this opportunity to apologise for the lack of formal education this week!!!! Your child is however now a master of pub games and thinks Buzz Lightyear rocks!!!!
 
I hate my job and leave on 22/8/2007.

I work in a company called Geopost UK, the french post office who wholey own Interlink Express and Parceline. Sadly, I manage a million quid ledger on the Interlink Express contract and see how badly Interlink is as a franchise, how it disregards its customers opinions, credits and the consumer's who are using Interlink Express.

My job is boredom in the extreme, everyday is the same, the calls are the same, the complaints are the same.

Back stabbing is endemic of the office I work in and I work in an office where a manager can harrass a girl and get away with it but a guy who accidently credited £9.00 over his limit is given a final written warning.

Still, as I said, I depart on 22/8 after 18 months there. It was a job I picked up from an Agency after returning to live in the UK from a spell in OZ so it has done me OK but glad to be going.
 
Hmmm.

I don't hate my job I just find it frustrating a more than a little boring. Frustrating due to being kept like a mushroom and well it just is boring.

I don't think its being helped by the fact I know they have downgraded the job so I only have so long on these wages and then I will lose approx £1500.00 a year which I can't afford to do.

Also life in general is not helping me get motivated to do something about it.

Please someone send a huge kick in this direction preferably wearing steel toe caps.
 
My job has highs and lows. It pays the bills which is what counts, but I do find it boring and I'm not really going to progress any further where I am.
The people I work with annoy me - we have some that do very little work, and some that just have no clue but coast along regardless. There's a few of them which are good people who I would miss, and one thing I would hate about leaving is dropping these few good people in the sh*t.
 
I think every job has it's highs and lows. At the mo I'm not happy but I don't hate my job. Things have been very slow to start this year and are not set to get better before September.

When I started the rest of the team understood about standards and impressions. Since then a few 'kids' have been recruited and now our reputation in the company is slipping. There is a time to play and during working hours is not the time.

Just realized I sound like a kill joy but if you knew what my job was you'd understand.

ME ... :naughty: ...


I Lurve my 'job' ...

I get on with (most of) the people I encounter ...

I don't have people who are supposed to work for me (thank heavens !) ...

I Lurve the people I'm supposed to work for ('cos they are nice & pay me pretty well too :D) ...

I dislike the financial industry with a passion ('cos there's far too much money slopping around in there !) ...

I detest myself for not being able to get my backside into gear and RETIRE ... now THAT would put a bigger smile on my face ...

I love my salary which buys my big boy's toys (and keeps my wife in pressies) ... :naughty:


I love Grolsch & Champagne much too much too ... :nuts:




Sorry DF/Reb, even more eloquent so I just had to re-plagerise - it would have been so rude NOT to ... :shrug:

how can I put this, its not top of my list anymore, but thanks to this forum the day is just about bearable!
 
I work for a company manufacturing optical filters:D
I can make any colour filter i want, including toned polaroids.
I also make filters for the latest military aircraft, of which i do most of the R&D.
My hobbies are photography and i have a passion for planes.
Do i love my job????????????

[S2]HELL YES[/S2]
 
Ok well i enjoyed my job today, despite the death of a child :( sad, very sad, but for the best (not just my opinion), but then I have been looking after two babies who are just a joy and have smiled at me all day, just at the right times when I have walked in the room.
So really my job has its ups and downs :) but then dont most.
 
Which Job?


My St00dent job i hate with a passion - where the only slightly redeeming feature is a percentage of the people i work with. Some of my colleagues are worth going to work for. Supermarkets are run by idiots, who are ruled by too much testosterone due to their lack of any substantial manhood.

HOWEVER - when i get QTS status next year and become a primary school teacher I will be beyond happy - it has it's ups and down's but there is nothing else i want to be doing on this planet than teach kids. One of the hardest things I've ever done in my life but when you walk out of a classroom for the last time and you feel numb and absolutely gutted you know theres only one place you belong.

Ven you are quite right but at the time I was simply too upset to post that in a way that would be fitting and proper on here:rules: :shake:

I now investigate civil litigation against my company and I generally enjoy my work a lot.

I had an experience the day I started this thread that I would preferably never have in my life again!

In the course of his duties (or so it is said) an employee of "my company" shot and fatally wounded a person. It is also said that this person stabbed "my" employee with a knife and so said employee underwent medical treatment in the order of about 2000 bucks - this is the equivalent of a very modest monthly income - read VERY modest to d*mn little.

Now here is where I come in...

I had to interview the mother of this deceased person in order to recoup this loss and get her to reimburse the "company".

She is unemployed, takes care of the child of her deceased son and her other son, who is also unemployed with one child, lives with them.

HOW IN HELL do you force this mother to repay the money while "the company" pays 20x this amount twice a month on average in settlement of other claims.

O.K. Soap box now stowed away back in broom closet...
 
Min, must have spent about half an hour with that woman but I assure you I made up my mind within 5 minutes!;)

Course of action taken, paperwork done and no recovery will take place - not economically viable etc...

The emotional part of it though...
